Let's test the waters, get to know each other, or use this time for whatever questions you may have. If you have special requests for your trial lesson, don't hesitate to tell me!

In this lesson, we can talk about a topic agreed in advance, with vocabulary, expressions, and sentence structures to guide you through it, or we can take turns at the helm, letting the conversation flow if you feel comfortable with that. I will provide feedback on pronunciation, intonation, and natural expressions and back channelling. Prest? Goazen ba!

英会話 / English Conversation

「バスク語って難しそう…」「全くの初心者だけど大丈夫かな…」と思っていませんか？

実は、バスク語は日本語話者にとって発音しやすいヨーロッパ言語の一つです。 多くの音が日本語に近く、文字と発音の関係もとても規則的なので、初心者でも比較的すぐに正しい発音で話し始めることができます。

このコースは、バスク語をゼロから始める日本語話者のための入門コースです。アルファベットや発音から、自己紹介や日常会話まで、一歩ずつ丁寧に学んでいきます。

授業では標準バスク語（Euskara Batua）を学びます。ピリネー山脈の両側のEuskal Herria (エウスカル・エリア）すなわちバスク地方で広く使われている共通語なので、将来バスク地方を訪れたり、バスク文化をより深く知りたい方にも最適です。

🌱 このコースで学べること

✅ 自己紹介や基本的な会話
✅ 家族、食べ物、趣味、道案内などの日常表現
✅ 基本的な文法・発音・語彙
✅ 簡単な質問や否定文の作り方
✅ 場所や移動の表現
✅ 短い文章の読み書き

🌱 レッスンの特徴

⭐ 一人ひとりに合わせたオーダーメイド授業
⭐ 初回から「使えるバスク語」を重視した実践的な内容
⭐ 文法を無理なく段階的に学習
⭐ バスクの文化・歴史・7つの地域やディアスポラについても紹介

説明は（私のまあまあな😅）日本語で行えるので、文法や疑問点も安心して質問できます。頑張ります！

🌿 このコースはこんな方におすすめ！

・バスク語を初めて学ぶ方
・バスク文化や歴史に興味がある方
・旅行や留学を考えている方
・少数言語や言語学に関心がある方

📌 すでにバスク語を勉強したことがある方へ

すでに基礎知識（A1レベル以上）がある方には、この入門コースではなく、別のコースの受講をおすすめしています。あなたの現在のレベルに合ったレッスンを一緒に見つけましょう！

少しずつ、でも確実に。
一緒にバスク語の世界への第一歩を踏み出しましょう！

Goazen!（さあ、始めましょう！）💪🌟
